My
name is Loida Martel, and I am a licensed Funeral Director and a Certified
Executor Advisor. I am the founder of an amazing company called Personal
Affairs Consulting, aimed at helping all Canadian families with their Estate
Administration needs.
Our
services can be broken down into 3 main categories:
1. Estate Planning:
You have
a consultation with a Certified Executor Advisor to discuss how you can go
about having your affairs in order. We would discuss everything that is
applicable to your circumstances and situation in order to protect yourself, property,
assets, family, and wishes.
2. Estate Administration:
Once
a death has occurred, we work with the Executor or legal next of kin to
complete all the necessary notifications and cancelations. From every government
agency to personal paperwork.
3. Senior Services:
Lastly, we
work with those aged 60+ in assisting them with applying for their pension (CPP
& OAS), as well as other government benefits and programs they may be eligible
for due to their age or income level.
Having
worked in the Funeral Service industry for over 13 years has provided me with an
immense amount of experience and a unique perspective. I have worked with
families from all walks of life and helped them during one of the most difficult
moment in their lives. However, I saw there was a need in the community to do
more to facilitate, be a resource, and provide guidance for the families we
served. Through my company I know I can provide my clients with the
information, tools, and means to feel confident in making informed decisions in
life about various topics. And if I cannot provide it for them, I know I have a
network of trusted professionals I can rely on to aid them.
(We
currently only serve the province of Ontario)
Making an impact in clients' lives means everything to me, and I do that by giving them a clear vision of their financial future and helping them plan for it.
Listening to and understanding your life goals are hallmarks of the current success of my practice, and I work hard to build financial strategies that help lifeguard your future. I have helped many families reallocate their financial resources to find opportunities, not only for wealth creation, but also for significant legacies around their family and community.
